Sorry, that video/tutorial just talkes about how to use the sky replacement. Within that feature is the ability to add ones own sky images to work within the sky replacement feature. I am asking for what image formst and size of image works; tiff, psdd, jpg, etc? How many mpx? and were are the files stored?

Also, here is a little trick for you which will not find in the video's. The Sky selection assumes the Sky is at the top of the image. If you have an image with the sky at the top and lake reflection at the bottom like the image I will post here, you can flit the image 180 and use the sky selection to select the reflection in the lake. If you save the selection and flipt the image back the selection will will rotate with the image

Hi jpeg i think works fine in medium size of 4-5mb is enough

Thank you. I just posted that I used a 25 mg Tiff but i also just used a
60 mg Tiff and it worked as well.

I asked the same question earlier today after adding a 25 meg Tiff file 300 DPI to the library and finding it was corrupted when I tried to insert it.  However, when I deleted that first iteration and added the exact same file a second time it loaded without difficulty.
